Preeeetttty simple :p It's ok, I guess. :)

It's simple yes, but is that enough reason to reply to it stating that :rolleyes:

This can be (somewhat) done with phpinclude. Hacking just gives a cleaner resulting HTML.

Filburt, in your eyes, everything can be done in phpinclude :).

Wouldn't using phpinclude in this, and calling an extra template, add a query per page?

is that the same link thats in the profile?

Yes, on the get info page, there's the administrative options link, this link that is put in the postbit has the same URL, except it's only viewable by administrators.

Nice little hack, N9ne. ;) I did this a while back using Logician's Dynamic Templates hack. No PHP files were harmed in the making of that hack. ;)

No, it just makes messy HTML.
